Double shock for parents after son tells them their house has been 'robbed'

Picture the scene: you come home from a night out with your significant other, only to find a note from your son telling you that the house has been robbed. You fear for the worst, right?

That’s exactly how one set of parents responded when they recently found a note from their son which read: “Dear Parents, I accidentally left the garage door open after I went to go see Ted. When I got back home the whole place was robbed…I’m sorry, please don’t freak out when you go inside…”

Instead of discovering that his home had been burgled, what this young man had actually done was replaced the heads in all of the family photos with that of actor Rob Lowe. So, technically, the house had been ‘robbed’ – but in the most annoying way possible.

The young man, known only by his Imgur username ‘Study of Wumbology’, uploaded the photos to the social networking site and, naturally, has since become a viral internet sensation.
